Hi, could someone please tell me why it is that when I refresh a page of my Rails app the checkboxes whose state are checked become unchecked in Chrome but not in Firefox. Therefore i am uncheked all these in document.ready function. Why is the behaviour of Firefox different from Chrome?
When you do a page refresh, you are reloading the page. There is no expectation that the user changes to the page since the page was originally loaded would persist.
Firefox has a browser vendor specific feature to try to remember user’s selections. It’s not standard.
There is no fix for this. You cannot get Firefox’s non-standard behavior in a browser which did not also implement this feature. The standard expectation is to lose all the edits from a page refresh.
However, if you have javascript setting the state when the page loaded the first time, try running it from window.load.
